Imac does not recognize my usb keyboard, stuck at no bootable device.

Hi,


I'm trying to install windows 10 on my imac late 2010 with optic drive and latest OSX.

I'm using a USB device instead of the optic drive. After getting bootcamp to read from the USB iso file, I got stuck when the imac started to boot form the new partition to start the windows installation. The imac is not reading the USB bootable file, and now I'm stuck at the No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key.


The problem is that I cant do anything since I don't have the original keyboard. I have a usb keyboard/mouse combo, and managed to get my hands on a dell usb keyboard and mouse from work. The mouse works but not the keyboard.


Is there any way I can bypass this screen and boot from my OSX partition without a keyboard?

iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
